A big fright, but no injuries to deplore. A "mini-tornado" swept through the Langonnet region in Morbihan on Saturday, sweeping away roofs and frameworks in just a few minutes. "At the time, I was really scared. I saw something spinning, coming from the ground, on at least 200 meters high ... as we see in the movies!" Says Elil, a resident of village, at the microphone of Europe 1.

"It made a hellish noise"

Her house was hit hard. "I had a lot of damage on my roof, and we have no more electricity," he said. From his home, he saw the tornado coming. "She was getting closer and closer, and quickly enough. It made a hellish noise, the house was shaking everywhere. And then we saw the tornado leave, continue its path with beams, things that flew at 100 or 150 meters high ... ", describes Elil. 

After a stormy evening on Saturday over a large part of the territory, 18 departments were placed on orange alert Sunday by Météo-France.
